I can tell you that if you want your API to be on the same address 192.168.1.14 as the VXLAN tunnel endpoints then it has to be one address on one interface and the two functions will share the same MTU - almost certainly not what you're looking for. If you source VXLAN packets from a different IP address then you can put it on a different interface and give it a different MTU - which appears to fit what you want much better.<br><div>-- <br></div><div>Ian.<br></div><br></div></div></div>
